High season Oregon coast RV park monthly rates
I love the Oregon coast, and have spent most of the last few summers there, paying through the nose for weekly motels. I would like to try transitioning to an RV park for weekly or monthly stays, but the rates I'm seeing make my eyes bulge out. I can't believe that ANYONE would be so crazy as to pay $85 a night (or worse!) for the privilege of parking on a 10x50 slab of concrete. But apparently, there is no price resistance on the part of the RV crowd...(I would just walk away laughing, but I appear to be in the minority).
What should I expect to pay for a full hookup site if I pay monthly? What parks offer the best value? I wouldn't have to be right on the ocean, nor would I care much about "amenities" like a shower building or a clubhouse. I do realize, by the way, that there are lots of nice state parks available for dry camping, but length of stay is usually limited and furthermore, they're $21-25 a night for no-hookup sites (there are a few with hookups, but they're pricey, and very hard to obtain).
I would be happy staying anywhere from Brookings to Astoria. I think $1000 a month is ludicrous for that slab of concrete, but can you get away with paying even that "little," or is it even worse?
(BTW, just about every little town on the OR coast has an ordinance against entering town in your RV without blowing some money, so you'll get hounded off the street by the local PO-lice within two minutes of parking your rig; you're expected to go rent that $85/night slab or keep moving, stranger.)
